To establish the information database of differentially expressed proteins in nucleus pulposus cells of the degeneration lumbar intervertebral disc. In this study, samples of nucleus pulposus cells from the degenerative lumbar intervertebral disc and normal lumbar intervertebral disc were collected. The tandem mass tag technique of proteomics was used to construct the map of differentially expressed proteome of nucleus pulposus cells between the lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration group and the control group. The differentially expressed proteins in nucleus pulposus cells in the degenerative lumbar intervertebral disc and the normal lumbar intervertebral disc are screened. Proteomics analysis of lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration provides some valuable differential protein markers for the diagnosis and treatment of intervertebral disc degeneration.
